Why would I care about this when I can have the entire English Wikipedia on my phone? Really struggling to understand why people are so excited about this stuff.
Knowledge doesnt amount to much on the LLM, i think what most are excited about is the artificial reasoning.
What is left for the brain to do? First people let their bodies atrophy. Next it's the mind. Wall-E here we come.
There will always be lots to do for those who are motivated to find such things. While the objective value of a thing may change greatly, the subjective value can be kept fairly constant. Just think about all the retro-x enthusiasts.
LLMs have the potential to eliminate a lot of rudimentary tasks. The brain should find better things to do than locating the closest number in two lists. It isn't all doom and gloom.
